SALMON WITH PASTA RECIPES

1. Use a speed-peeler to strip the top tender half of the asparagus stalks into ribbons.
2. Finely slice the remaining stalks, discarding the woody ends.
3. Cook the pasta in a pan of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions, then drain, reserving a mugful of cooking water.
4. Meanwhile, roughly break the salmon into a large non-stick frying pan on a medium-high heat.
5. Add the sliced asparagus stalks, and toss occasionally until the pasta’s ready.
6. Finely grate half the lemon zest into the salmon pan, squeeze in half the juice, then toss in the drained pasta, a good splash of reserved cooking water and the crème fraîche.
7. Add the asparagus ribbons, toss again, then season to perfection with sea salt and black pepper. Serve with lemon wedges, for squeezing over.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees

Cook the salmon en papillote, with some olive oil, clove garlic, squeeze of lemon and season with salt and pepper to taste, for 15 minutes

Boil the pasta for 15 mins until al dente

Cook the leeks in the butter and garlic, once softened season and add the flour to coat all the leeks

Add the milk a little at a time until you have a thick creamy sauce, now add the yogurt and mustard along with the parsley and mint and stir well – season well with black pepper 

Add your cooked pasta to an oven proof dish, then add the salmon layer, flaking across all the pasta removing any bones.

Now add the creamy leeks over the top covering right to the edges

Sprinkle over the breadcrumbs and season lightly again

Put this in the oven until golden brown on top – about 15 minutes should do the trick!
